LANSING, MI - It's oddly shaped, metallic, and could easily pass as a laboratory for Batman.

Could MSU's Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum be in the next Batman and Superman film?

This week, director Zach Snyder was on MSU's campus scouting a location for an upcoming film. Snyder, who directed the 2013 film "Man of Steel," is working on a sequel tentatively titled "Batman vs. Superman"

"Obviously, we think it's great that our space is thought of for projects like this," said Jake Pechtel, director of public relations for the Broad. "From what I understand, Mr. Snyder really loved the space, and we'd be thrilled to be a location for one of his films."

On Thursday, Chris Begley of Batman News wrote that "It definitely sounds like the Eli and Edythe Broad Art Museum is a likely Batman vs. Superman location to me. It’s a very exotic looking building, both inside and out."
